Open Thread: ALCS Game 1, Yankees vs. Angels

I'm late on both games.  It's 2-0 Yankees right now.  

Look who it is presenting Derek Jeter a "I want to thank the Good Lord for making me a Yankee" sign.  It's our old friend and Executive VP Dave Winfield who wishes soooo badly that he had entered the Hall of Fame as a Yankee instead of a Padre.  

Seriously I've seen Winfield do more events and prmotions for the Yankees in the past two years than I have seen him do for the Padres.

Maybe we can petition the Hall of Fame and get them to change his plaque.

 




Poll
Does Dave Winfield regret his choice to enter the Hall of Fame as a Padre?
Without a doubt, he'd rather be a Yankee
48 votes
He's okay being a Padre, he got all those bribes from Moores which made it worth it

I think the bribes kept him happy for awhile

Now he wishes different. FTW, Somos los mejores fanaticos del mundo, ese…. Padres pa siempre. Chinge los Yankees, pinches putos pendejos.

Nobody is interested in this game?

I thought for sure Yankee loving sdsuaztec4 would be all over this.

Nope

I was doing laundry at my aunt’s house.

"I'm a Padre at heart. Always gonna root for the Padres. Twenty-five years [with this organization], how can't you? Next year I'm gonna be rooting like a son-of-a-gun for these guys and for Blackie ... I'm gonna be rooting for the next general manager here, rooting for the city, the fans, everybody. I think a lot of San Diego." -Kevin Towers

You're calling this guy a pussy?

You may be on to something there.

Give him the benefit of the doubt

He could be a top, right?

As much as I want to watch this game...

I’m off to have a couple brewskis with my lil’ bro. If I have more than a couple I’m sure I’ll be commenting a little later on.
